Botanically-based restorative hair care safe for clients and stylists
Israeli hair stylist Mordechai Alvow founded Yarok in 2010 to provide the most nourishing, eco-friendly and effective hair and scalp products for salons and individuals. Alvow grew up using natural remedies from essential oils mixed by his mother and grandmother. After joining the beauty industry professionally, he started suffering from terrible allergic reactions from all the chemicals in commercial hair care products. Alvow went back to his roots and started creating products that contribute to the health of the planet as well as help people look and feel fabulous.
He started testing his products on his celebrity clients and was amazed by how effective they were on dry, damaged hair. Yarok is formulated to heal hair and the scalp, bringing it back "to its youth." Yarok's tagline "Food for your hair" speaks to the restorative, nurturing properties of the hair care line. Yarok operates a sustainable hair salon and showroom aptly named Yarok Beauty Kitchen in New York's Chelsea neighborhood dedicated to the brand's organic and sustainable lifestyle.
